September 4, 2026

Human health Medical device Regulatory emergency

Context

A large medical device company was struggling to maintain all of its vigilance activities following the departure of the responsible person, in a difficult recruitment context.

The challenge

Every day without vigilance management represented a real risk: failure to detect a trend impacting clinical safety, risk of non-conformity in the event of an audit or inspection, and potential reputational impact with prescribers and patients.

The One Health Compliance solution

  • Rapid analysis of the situation and definition of a solution taking into account available internal resources and a worst-case scenario: how to maintain compliance even in the absence of short-term recruitment?
  • Verification of compliance with regulatory requirements and implementation of the necessary remediation activities.
  • Creation of a reusable tool and simplified process to ensure continuity.

The result

  • A simplified vigilance process and a tailored reusable tool.
  • Corrective actions traced and justifiable during an audit or inspection.
  • Immediate internalisation of activities and compliance with regulatory deadlines without waiting for recruitment.

✓ Compliance continuity ensured ✓ Reusable tool created ✓ Regulatory deadlines met
